Apogee, the nation’s largest provider of managed residential network (ResNet) services for higher education, today announced its appointment as Texas A&M University at Galveston’s dedicated ResNet provider. Apogee was selected to deploy and manage advanced network services for on-campus residents, including high-speed broadband and an extensive new dense-capacity wireless infrastructure to extend coverage across the entire residential community.

Texas A&M University at Galveston needed to address mounting bandwidth and mobility challenges while still managing to stabilize costs and refocus IT resources on areas that would most impact the University. Following Apogee’s successful partnership with Tarleton University, another campus in the Texas A&M system, TAMUG decided that the time had come to rethink the traditional model of network service delivery for students and embraced managed residential networking with a trusted provider.
